About the Role

Are you tired of being rushed through jobs, fixing the same hose twice, or working for a company that values speed over doing it right?

At PIRTEK, we do on-site hydraulic hose service the right way the first time. Our technicians are trusted problem-solvers—not just parts changers—and we support them with training, stocked service trucks, and clear quality standards.

This is hands-on field work with rotating on-call hours (with incentive pay). If you take pride in clean installs, safety, and professional work, this may be a great fit.

What You’ll Do

• Diagnose hydraulic hose failures and service issues
• Fabricate and install hydraulic and industrial hose assemblies
• Route and secure hoses properly to prevent premature failure
• Perform clean, professional installations that meet safety standards
• Communicate clearly with customers about repairs and solutions
• Accurately document work for invoicing and service records
• Maintain your mobile service unit, tools, and inventory
• Participate in a rotating on-call schedule (with incentive pay)

What Makes This Job Different

• Fully equipped, purpose-built service trucks
• Hourly pay (not commission-only)
• On-call incentive pay
• Paid training and certification (hydraulic experience not required)
• 24/7 technical support—never stuck alone in the field
• Territory-based service areas (no chaos dispatching)
• Clear quality and safety standards
• Opportunities for advancement and long-term growth

Who We’re Looking For

Our best technicians:

• Take pride in clean, professional work
• Care about safety—for themselves and customers
• Are mechanically inclined and enjoy hands-on problem solving
• Communicate well and represent the company professionally
• Take ownership of their work and fix issues the right way

Hydraulic hose experience is not required.
Work ethic, attitude, and attention to detail matter most.

Requirements

• Valid driver’s license with clean driving record
• Ability to safely operate a large service van
• Ability to lift up to 50 lbs and perform physical work
• Comfortable working in industrial environments (oil, grease, weather)
• Willingness to participate in a rotating on-call schedule
• High school diploma or GED
• Ability to pass background and driving checks

Experience in diesel, heavy equipment, industrial maintenance, field service, or mechanical trades is a plus—but not required.


Pay & Benefits

• Competitive hourly pay based on experience
• On-call incentive pay
• Company vehicle and phone
• Paid training and certification
• Paid Time Off
• Quality-based bonus opportunities
• Career advancement and promotions from within

Not a Fit If…

• You want commission-only pay
• You rush work just to close tickets
• You don’t like physical, hands-on jobs
• You’re uncomfortable working independently
• You prefer shortcuts over quality

Bottom Line

This job isn’t easy—it’s hands-on, sometimes dirty, and requires accountability.
But if you want pride in your work, support in the field, and a company that values quality over shortcuts, PIRTEK offers a long-term career—not just another service job.
